We have very few areas that don't depend upon Ellucian Colleague on a daily basis.

- Stable - Colleague has been around for a long time and works well.
- High learning curve for management and use.

- Customizable.
- Student records lifecycle.
- Decent support.
- We could not do business without Colleague.
We originally started on Jenzabar Cars platform and then evaluated PeopleSoft and SCT Banner.
Colleague won out on cost compared to PeopleSoft and features over Banner.
We noticed that PeopleSoft had a better technical underpinning with a greater integration with workflow.
Colleague had a better out of the box experience than either of the other two even though we heavily customized it from there.
